The Steward, Santa Barbara, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

Goleta Goleta|1.09km from city center
The hotel garden is beautiful, the breakfast is fresh, the restaurant is beautiful and you can eat it outside. The room is a row of townhouses, we live on the second floor. The only downside is that the bed is too soft.

The Leta Santa Barbara Goleta, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

Goleta Goleta|0.88km from city center
A few friends and I stayed overnight at the Leta this past week and it was an incredible escape! It’s so beautiful, both the interior and exterior, and every staff member we interacted with was so kind! The feel of the hotel is so vintage and artistic, and there is no air of haughtiness or disdain that so many hotels can have. I cannot wait to do it again soon!!

Hilton Garden Inn Santa Barbara/Goleta

Goleta Goleta|3.82km from city center
I stayed here on a recent business trip. The check in was easy and the girl at the desk was quite nice. The hotel is near the airport which was helpful. The rooms are smaller but on par with other Garden Inns. It was a very clean hotel and looked almost new. It was quiet for sleeping.

Best Western Plus South Coast Inn

Goleta Goleta|0.97km from city center
The hotel location is good, suitable for self-driving, the rooms are very clean and comfortable, the beds in the twin rooms are large enough to accommodate 2 people per bed. On the second floor, you need to carry your luggage upstairs, but it is a dozen stairs. There was a microwave oven and a coffee machine in the room. I arrived at the store late that night and heated the fast food products in the room.

Motel 6 Goleta, CA - Santa Barbara
3.6/5105 Reviews

Motel 6 Goleta, CA - Santa Barbara

Goleta Goleta|0.58km from city center
It's been about 30 years since I've stayed in a Motel 6 when they were a modest $23 a night and Tom Bodette was airing his homey midwestern voice over the airwaves, stating ”We'll leave the light on for you.” They did leave the light on, but not the hot water heater. I took a city water temperature shower in the white fiberglass shower stall, and passed out in a moderately comfortable full size bed. The guy behind the desk, who looked like he'd been on a steady diet of Nacho flavored Doritos for every meal since birth, gave me the wrong key card, and I opened the door of a guy who was sleeping in his darkened room who uttered, ”HEY!!” and I quickly apologized. I'm just glad he didn't have a gun, because dying in a Motel 6 would look really crappy on my obituary. I like the remodeled look of the rooms with it's retro-mod TV console and decor, cheap as it is, is an attempt at a certain aesthetic other than cheap. I promise, I will never return!!

Residence Inn Santa Barbara Goleta

Goleta Santa Barbara|2.08km from Goleta Beach Park
We stayed in room 308 (1 Bedroom Suite) the week of September 12, 2022. The hotel and room are in great condition. All of the employees that we had contact with were very nice. There was always lots of parking available in the hotel parking lot and it's very well lit. There isn't much in the immediate area of the hotel but it's perfectly safe and only a 15 minute drive to downtown Santa Barbara. However, the bathroom sink is in the bedroom. It's not actually inside the bathroom with the toilet and shower/tub. I personally really dislike this design because if one person is sleeping you can't use the bathroom sink without waking them up. But what's even worse about the design of the bathroom is that there isn't a single towel rack or hook anywhere near the bathroom sink or the toilet or the shower/tub or on either side of the bathroom door to hang a towel. In addition, I understand that the room that I'm assigned may not look exactly like the photos of the 1 Bedroom Suite on the hotel website but the front desk said that the 1 Bedroom Suite pictured on the hotel website (The bathroom sink is actually inside the bathroom with the toilet and the shower/tub. There are towel racks in the bathroom.) isn't available to anyone. In other words, none of the 1 Bedroom Suites actually look like the photos of the 1 Bedroom Suite on the hotel website. So we resorted to using the ”closet” rods as a towel rack for all of our bath towels, hand towels, and washcloths. We also took a square freestanding storage unit from the ”closet” area and placed it next to to the shower/tub to put our towels on so we can reach for them when getting out of the shower. This room is handicap accessible but that should have absolutely nothing to do with having towel racks or not. Everyone needs towel racks whether they're in a wheelchair or not. FYI the metal bars that you see in the photos that I posted are grab bars, not towel racks. I've stayed in hotels that don't have enough towel rack but I've never stayed in a hotel that doesn't have any towel racks at all. This seems like a major design flaw. Considering that we paid $366.00/night on average, this was extremely disappointing and inconvenient.

The guy behind the desk, who looked like he'd been on a steady diet of Nacho flavored Doritos for every meal since birth, gave me the wrong key card, and I opened the door of a guy who was sleeping in his darkened room who uttered, ”HEY!!” and I quickly apologized. I'm just glad he didn't have a gun, because dying in a Motel 6 would look really crappy on my obituary. I like the remodeled look of the rooms with it's retro-mod TV console and decor, cheap as it is, is an attempt at a certain aesthetic other than cheap. I promise, I will never return!!

The hotel location is good, suitable for self-driving, the rooms are very clean and comfortable, the beds in the twin rooms are large enough to accommodate 2 people per bed. On the second floor, you need to carry your luggage upstairs, but it is a dozen stairs. There was a microwave oven and a coffee machine in the room. I arrived at the store late that night and heated the fast food products in the room.

It's been about 30 years since I've stayed in a Motel 6 when they were a modest $23 a night and Tom Bodette was airing his homey midwestern voice over the airwaves, stating ”We'll leave the light on for you.” They did leave the light on, but not the hot water heater. I took a city water temperature shower in the white fiberglass shower stall, and passed out in a moderately comfortable full size bed. The guy behind the desk, who looked like he'd been on a steady diet of Nacho flavored Doritos for every meal since birth, gave me the wrong key card, and I opened the door of a guy who was sleeping in his darkened room who uttered, ”HEY!!” and I quickly apologized. I'm just glad he didn't have a gun, because dying in a Motel 6 would look really crappy on my obituary.

A few friends and I stayed overnight at the Leta this past week and it was an incredible escape! It’s so beautiful, both the interior and exterior, and every staff member we interacted with was so kind! The feel of the hotel is so vintage and artistic, and there is no air of haughtiness or disdain that so many hotels can have. I cannot wait to do it again soon!!

Hotel prices are affordable, there is free parking, a small pool, room air conditioning sounds a bit noisy. Breakfast is simple, not even eggs, but you can make delicious waffles, there are several restaurants and small supermarkets for 5-7 minutes.

The hotel garden is beautiful, the breakfast is fresh, the restaurant is beautiful and you can eat it outside. The room is a row of townhouses, we live on the second floor. The only downside is that the bed is too soft.
